Showing output to a command window

Hi Friends
i have an application where i have implemented sockects (server-client) using
client = new Socket(IP,port num); // client
server = new ServerSocket(port num); // server
clientSock = server.accept(); // server
now im sending a SQL query from client to server and at server side i m executing it through jdbc.
i have converted my server socket program to windows service(through some software). So there is no command prompt opened for the Server program.
Now the proiblem is that my requirement is to open a new command window through my server program and show the return result from the query on that window and then close it.
in my server prog i'have writen
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\cmd.exe");
but its not getting opened.
if it does also, i dont have a clue how i'll send the data returned from the query to that window..
HELP!!!!

no my project reqirement is that we have to show it
in command prompt window.
Now im trying to open this command prompt from my
server socket program. which is a windows service.
now the problem is that cmd.exe is getting opened but
im unable to see it bcoz it is getting opened in my
server socket service's environment.
What im looking for is to how to open cmd.exe in new
environment and send some data to it to display on
it???Why does it need to be shown in a command window? Is the user going to interact with the program (or the command window). If all you are doing is displaying a result a dialog is a much better answer. Ask your project management about it. If it is only that they like the way the command window looks (which is the only reason if the user does not need to interact with it) then set the back- and fore- ground colors and the font, so that it looks like the command window, and your good.
If the user does not need to interact with the thing, then your program attempting to interact with a command prompt is only introducing a complication and a requirement that you don't need.
Like I said, ask your project manager if you can use a dialog. It is not only easier, it is much more flexible (and sensible).

Gnome Panel applet that shows output of system command.

Hi all;
Because of the recent hostile takeover of #archlinux channel by tilling WM fanatics.. I will ask here..
Does any one know of a Gnome Panel applet that shows the output of system command of your choice?
For people who Conky is a bit too much and they only want a simple piece of data available (like what is the current IP on ppp0 interface) like me.. this is a necessity.
If its not in existence I would probably make one.. shouldn't take long, I also would like to hear if there is any interest.
Thanks

That's exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
Changed code to:
$dism = "X:\Windows\System32\Cmd.exe /c start CMD /k dism /apply-image /imagefile:D:\W7x86.wim /index:1 /applydir:C:\"
And voila, new window opened with the live output of dism.

Command Window control

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to control whether or not input appears in the command (MS-DOS) window or not. For example, if I have a program that does something like this:
Please enter a Sentence.
I am going to the store. presses enter
Is there a way to control whether or not that sentence shows up in the command window?

For example, if I have a program that does something like this:If by "does" you mean the program prints the prompt on System.out
and gets the input from System.in then your choices are pretty minimal.
(Being able to use the console effectively is a long standing bug/RFE
with Java).
But check out Console's readPassword() method in 1.6 which "Reads
a password or passphrase from the console with echoing disabled".

How do I show the output of a command called within a gui script

I'm starting from scratch on a project I've been tasked with. My intention is a quick down-and-dirty way to apply an image within winPE to apply a windows image to the machine I've booted to a usb drive loaded with winPE.
Here's my start. It's rough, but, I have to start somewhere.
[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")
[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing")
$objForm = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form
$objForm.Text = "DISM"
$objForm.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(600,400)
$objForm.AutoSizeMode = "GrowAndShrink"
$objForm.StartPosition = "CenterScreen"
$objForm.FormBorderStyle = "Fixed3D"
$objForm.KeyPreview = $True
Function do_DISM{
$dism = "dism /apply-image /imagefile:D:\W7x86.wim /index:1 /applydir:C:\"
Invoke-Expression $dism
$DISMButton = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Button
$DISMButton.BackColor = "ButtonFace"
$DISMButton.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(12,27)
$DISMButton.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(120,25)
$DISMButton.TabIndex = 1
$DISMButton.Text = “Start DISM”
$DISMButton.Add_Click({do_DISM})
$objForm.Controls.Add($DISMButton)
$objForm.Add_Shown({$objForm.Activate()})
[void] $objForm.ShowDialog()
Now, this does work, and it will in fact apply the windows image to c:\ which is what I need it to do. But, I have a few quesitons.
Am I correct to use "Invoke-Expression" in the function do_DISM to start the command? According to technet's articles, yes, but, want to make sure I'm doing this the proper way, since I'm learning that calling Invoke-Expression isn't always
the way to do things.
Also, since this will be used by others in my group, I'm going to need to show some sort of progress report on how far along DISM is getting along, otherwise, 5 minutes into DISM running, some people are going to think nothing's happening, and just power
down the computer no matter what I tell them. I know that running DISM from the command line, it will show a progress bar that is adequate for what I'm needing. Running the script above and clicking the button, it does run, but, all in the background
with no progress indication. Is there a way I can tell either in the function or when the function calls Invoke-Expression to run DISM, to open in a new command window which shows the live progress of the command running?
Again, my disclaimer: VERY new to writing bits of code, and am trying my best here, so, thanks in advance for patience with me.

That's exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
Changed code to:
$dism = "X:\Windows\System32\Cmd.exe /c start CMD /k dism /apply-image /imagefile:D:\W7x86.wim /index:1 /applydir:C:\"

Output jframe information to command window

Hi all I have a program that tracks the assets of a customer, kind of like a cart that holds cds, appliances, etc...
I wanted to be able to print out the results to the command window after they enter the number of how many items from what the user enters after they press "current status" or if they "delete" their current items. I want it to keep doing this until they close the window and exit the program. People have told me to add the System.out.println to where it says "delete" or "current status" but Im not sure how to add it in I will attach the code here. Thanks

I don't understand the question. Are you telling us you don't understand how to use System.out.println(...);? How do you debug programs without using this method?
Usually the first program someone learns to write is something like:
public static void main(String[] args)
    System.out.println("Hello World");
after they press "current status" or if they "delete" their current itemsYou want to do some activity when the above actions occur. You must already have code in your program to do something in the above cases. So simply add the System.out.println(..) statements in the same part of code.

How to redirect standard output/error of a ucb function to matrixx command window

Is there a way to redirect standard output/error of a ucb function to matrixx command window?
I know that the recommended way is to use stdwrt or XmathDisplay commands. However, we have some
libraries that already exists which uses printf calls and I would like to redirect their output
to the matrixx command window.
Thanks

Hi,
What you need to do is create a printf function that will print the information into a string, then you can use stdwrt to display it in Xmath.
Then you tell the UCB linking process to compile and link with this version of printf.c
I am including the printf.c that we used to test the function you needed.
Hope this helps.

hello,
what about CONFIG method. what is the difference between that and manual and how can I change it to CONFIG? this is related to the ASA 5585.

CBWFQ: Question about the output of "show policy-map interface" command

Hi everyone,
I have a question about the output of "show policy-map interface" command.
The following is the output of this command and lower side of the output shows
(total queued/total drops/no-buffer drops) 0/342/0
If the packets drop occur due to the situation of no enough buffer,
"no-buffer drops" counted up. But "no-buffer drops" has not been counted up.
The "no-buffer drops" is 0 (zero) but "total drops" are counted as 342.
I guess there are other factors except "no-buffer drops" to add "total drops".
But I can not find any information about "other factors".
So I would like to know the "other factors" added to "total drops".

How to display error messages and output from Matlab (which Matlab would typically send to its command window but no longer does when called by Labview) into Labview or allow it to be dumped into Matlab Command Window?

Using Labview 6i and Matlab 6.1. I want to be able to see Matlab warnings and error messages either in the Matlab Command Window or in Labview itself. Currently Matlab is called by Labview (which is working). However I would like to debug and/or modify my Matlab script file to better understand how the two programs are interfacing. It is difficult since no data or messages can be displayed currently to the Matlab command window. I would like to change that if it is possible - Labview is suppressing that from happening. If not possible to send these
messages to Matlab Command Window can I make it at least possible to see Matlab's actual warnings and/or error messages in Labview?

I don't think you can debug your Matlab script from labVIEW. The following webpage talks about this:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/19106e318c476e608625670b005bd288?OpenDocument
My suggestion would be to write a script in Matlab and thoroughly test it before calling the script from a Matlab script node in LabVIEW.

Serveroutput in the command window of PLSQL Developer

In sqlplus, I input the following SQL:
SQL> set serveroutput on
SQL> show serveroutput
serveroutput ON SIZE UNLIMITED FORMAT WORD_WRAPPED
SQL> select /*+ no_index(t1 idx_t1) */ * from t1 where n=3;
     N
     3
SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'advanced'));
PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
While I input the same SQL in PLSQL Developer:
SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(null,null,'advanced'));
PLAN_TABLE_OUTPUT
SQL_ID     9babjv8yq8ru3, child number 0
BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(:LINES, :NUMLINES); END;
NOTE: cannot fetch plan for SQL_ID: 9babjv8yq8ru3, CHILD_NUMBER: 0
Please verify value of SQL_ID and CHILD_NUMBER;
It could also be that the plan is no longer in cursor cache (check v$sql_plan)
And the most important is:
SQL> show serveroutput
SQL>
The result of it is empty.
The reason for that is serveroutput is only supported in sqlplus not PLSQL? I know serveroutput is sqlplus language not SQL. However I use "show serveroutput" in command window of PLSQL Developer which is the same as sqlplus. What's the real reason for that?
Thanks for your kindly reply.

" If serveroutput is on when you call this function, the last statement you will have run will be the (hidden) call to dbms_output that follows your execution of any other statement – so you won’t get the plan and statistics."
http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2006/11/09/dbms_xplan-in-10g/
"Luckily I recognized the line BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(...); END; from the tkprof output files. It is what SQL*Plus does after each statement: flushing the dbms_output buffer to the screen. To have the dbms_xplan.display_cursor show what I want, I started writing a little script against V$SQL to get the latest "real" SQL-statement, but then I realised I cannot possibly be the first to encounter this problem. Googling led me to this very useful blog entry by Jonathan Lewis. It contains almost everything you want to know about the display_cursor function. A simple "set serveroutput off" is enough to get the function working! "
http://rwijk.blogspot.nl/2008/03/dbmsxplandisplaycursor.html
So, actually you should have set serverout off.
Probably also depending on how you're gathering the execution plan statistics (you're not using the gather_plan_statistics hint?) and the SQL*Plus version and database version you're working with...

Command window won't open Windows 8 (too) [SOLVED]

I can't get the normal cmd window to open, in Windows 8. It was the same in Windows 7, so obviously something has been transferred (or remained unchanged) when I upgraded to Win8.
Symptoms: I run cmd from win-R: conhost.exe is started every time, command window process is also started - BUT - there is no visible window! (Same if I run the command from the menu, run as administrator, whatever)
I have seen this problem decribed by other users in the World for some time before, but still haven't found any solution.
I suspect there is some policy setting, that prevents this window from opening. I found a proposed removal of policy settings; tried it, but it didn't make any difference.
What policy settings could theoretically influence this?

I can provide ProcMon output, but I can't interpret it - it's too much information for me.
Perhaps a better tool would be ProcExp. If the task is really there and you have cmd.exe which are both visible and invisible it can at least give you a clue about how it was started and its relationship with other started tasks.
ProcMon shows all the steps to producing the result that you are seeing. You could start with a restrictive filter such as showing only Process & Threads and then comparing the patterns of successful and unsuccessful attempts at starting cmd.exe
only from that perspective.
Coincidentally I have just found a new toy you might be able to use easily for comparison purposes too: wmic.exe
E.g. for some capturable data about your problem tasks enter:
process where name='cmd.exe' list /format
Do it for conhost.exe too.
C.f.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb742610.aspx#ECAA
FWIW I have been oblivious of conhost.exe until seeing it mentioned in this incident. What does it do?...
I don't know but a search shows some other diagnostics which may also be easier to interpret than a ProcMon trace. E.g. we should have thought about checking the Event log before this. (But ProcMon would be showing you whether there
was a write done to it as a result of your test. <eg>)
Good luck

External command ( WINDOWS NT ) not terminating

Hi,
I have an issue that on executing a windows NT command file that does a filter transfer. When executing manually on the server, it works well. But when executing command from SAP GUI, it is left hanging. The transfer was successful but the SAP program or job is not terminating.
We have run traces and the logs shows the execution has not stopped. The dev_cp log stops here:
> Function: BtcXpgStartXpgExport    > Function: BtcXpgTable    < Function: BtcXpgTable < Function: BtcXpgEndXpgImport > Function: BtcXpgEndXpgInt    > Function: BtcXpgItTrans
        Line Text
        <No StdOut/StdErr output reported>
      Target log table is not identical to source
      ItGetLine terminated with NULL
    < Function: BtcXpgItTransfer    > Function: BtcXpgReadChild      Output of external command not written to log !!
the dev_w* logs stope here:
SXPG:               start
SXPG: 2011/01/10 09:02:35 984000

Hello,
How are you executing the external command?
If you're using the FM 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' you need to pass ' ' to the param TERMINATIONWAIT.

"show in itunes store" command missing from video library

updated to itunes 11.1, and ios7.
This isn't a pro or con diatribe, just a list of the minorish bugs that i have noticed:
First (probable?) bug:
With the latest update, the (control click) "show in itunes store" command is missing from all video layouts (unwatched, shows, genres) except "list".
I assume this is just a temporary bug, as it limits easy access to purchasable store content.
This is especially important since "check for available downloads", while still around, has been, as far as i can tell, completely nonfunctional for months.
I now have all my email notifications for passes turned on, and just manually click on the emails to download new content.
However, especially for shows with extra content, sometimes the email doesn't download the actual show, just the extra content.
for this reason, and for non pass shows, and just for general shopping and impulse buys, I liked to use the "show in itunes store" to easily check shows that i am currently interested in.
except that now it is gone.
Another (probable) bug:
I have a lot of purchased content, so i have the cloud turned off to control the flow of menu information. i don't need to see everything i have purchased all the time, only the newest shows that i actually have loaded onto the ipad. I still just load in the shows i want to watch from my main computer after i have downloaded them from apple to the hard drive, which i guess is now a bit old fashioned. ios7 doesn't seem to like this very much, as it initially displays the cloud content when opening the "video" app, before blanking and replacing it with the edited down version. But the real bug is this:
Now when i delete a video on the ipad, it crashes the "video" app.
And, instead of recognizing the delete when i sync to the computer, it ignores it and reloads the video onto the ipad.
......And finally:
There is still a tendency for the ipad and itunes to throw up the "sign in" pop up, often multiple times in a row, anywhere and for no reason, even when i am already signed in. Sometimes i can just hit "cancel" and it disappears, other times it forces me to retype my password. It's gotten a lot better and less frequent than when it first started earlier this year, but it's still around.
Having said this, I'm still, of course, a huge fan of the change earlier this year that keeps track of purchases and allows me redownload, instead of the old "lose it and its gone, tough luck" policy.

Ha. Maybe it's just me then. When i control click on a show, i'm getting:
In Library/TV Shows: Unwatched, Shows, and Genres:
play "[show]"
mark as watched
mark as unwatched
[depending on blue dot]
get info
rating
show description
show in finder
reset plays
show in playlist
copy
as opposed to, in List (and everywhere else):
play "[show]"
mark as watched
mark as unwatched
[depending on blue dot]
get info
rating
show description
show in finder
show in itunes store
get album artwork
reset plays
consolidate files
new playlist from selection
add to playlist
show in playlist
copy
delete
uncheck selection
apply sort field
I have my sidebar turned on, but it doesn't seem to make a difference if it is showing or not.
I looked around in settings, view, and window for a way to modify the control click menu, but couldn't find anything.
It's a very minor issue.
If your menu is working, maybe I just need to delete my copy of itunes and reinstall. Or change a setting somewhere.

If you don't want the command window to show, use:
